Design Chaos Throttle Body Spacer

Hey guys im selling my tb spacer. Im selling it because it doesnt fit with my new intake i bought. This is one of the best bang for your buck. Dave O at Nissan Magazine has one and recommends it. I could definetly feel a difference in power after i put this on. Around 8-10 horses.

Im asking 75 picked up in Socal. Shipping will be extra, like 5 bucks.

what kind of realistic numbers would we be looking at? what exactly does the spacer do, or does it basically do what the 5/16" spacers and stuff do in the plenum?

there is alot of debate about these throttlebody spacers... some say more harm than good. some say no different at all, some say after putting it on, then doing a dyno they actually lose! or in some cases they actually gain! So there are mixed reviews, but by looking at it, I am assuming it makes the air go in much more smoothly, and much more effeciently than the oem design.

well i got those numbers from Sean Church at Church Automotive.. He said he dynoed his car and got those numbers. He said he dynoed a bunch of VQ's and he got same results in all of them. Mike riggs (OCG35), got these numbers on his first dyno as well. That all im gonna say. My but dyno felt the increase.

From all the threads i've read about it, maybe 1 hp lol, just like intakes for our cars. Really doesn't do much. But it does look cool!
